there are people who have slayer tasks too. the ones that use vannaka as a slayer master.
and i enjoy charging air orbs because they are a great deal of money and great mage exp. i do not like the thought of being targeted because of some pker.

they should not force this activity on others that does not want it and the free trade idea sucks. what is going to happen to the ge. i do not like going from player to player saying pls by my wares meaning snake skin boots water and air orbs.

slayer monster drops and summoning and crafting pots.

Personally, Iam HYPED for this update; nothing excites me more than going back to the good old days where a group of 3 other friends and I would go looking for a little scuffle in the wildy. In all honesty, when the wildy was removed, Runescape was not the same. It may have had some benefits, with Real World Trading and all that, but for those who followed such rules and just wished to have a good PVP experience, it was heartbreaking. It was a major part of our friendship. We talked about it all the time. Our cycle was: "Train during the week; PVP during weekend." I have already registered my vote and I encourage everyone to. Not just because it's cool to fight against others, no holds-barred, in hostile and exciting environments. (which is true.) But, you should vote for this update because it will bring back a major part of the Runescape culture.

Gad Zook, I know you JaGeX can move Shooting Stars. I know it's their game. But moving them would be hard the Wilderness is one of the most popular regions to hunt in.
In my opinion why would you want to pk? I find pking is a stupid activity anyway!! Possibly losing your items? Not fun to me.

"For the first 5 years of this game the wildy operated fine. Im sick of people saying well I like to quest and skill in the wildy.
HELLOOO people did that! Its not like it was a completely disfunctional zone. People say well its gonna be hard to do the quests now. Thats good, the game should be a challenge."
I truely <3 u
Half the ppl whining werent even on when this stuff existed and cant comprehend that these things existed before wildy was nerfed.
Trade limits on the other hand have always hurt those who hate quest and simply skilled or pked and are an abomination to what runescape was getting rid of them will encourage learning on everyone's part again*

I am totally in favor of bringing back the original Wilderness AND Free Trade. For all of you who don't agree with returning free trade, hear me out.
We have all been scammed before, yes? Of course we have.
However, we as players NEED to learn from our mistakes! In the real world, people are scammed all the time. It is our job to recognize our faults, and to act accordingly by not repeating them!
Furthermore, with the bright flashing red exclamation points, in addition to the not one, but TWO trading review screens, it is impossible for CAUTIOUS player to be scammed!
Admit it guys and gals, you were scammed because you didn't take the time to READ your screens. You were so excited about receiving your first "Rune" scimitar that you immediately clicked 'Accept' without a glance. (I know I did.)
Still don't agree with me?
When you rode your first bike without training wheels, did you fall? Most of us would say we did. We would also say that, without a doubt, we were overwhelmed with joy when we pedaled down that pavement for the first time, flawlessly. Now imagine if those training wheels were NEVER removed. Would you ever learn to ride that bike by yourself?
You would be so content with those training wheels that even the thought of taking them off would seem stupid. I mean, you're so used it now, why make a change?
EVERYONE has forgotten the FREEDOM that RuneScape's trading system once had. Do you recall when Trade Limits first came out? There was an outrage! Riots were held in Varrock Square! Over time though, we all got accustomed to the limits, forgetting what we once held dear. Would this be the first time? Of course not.
Recall when the RuneScape Font was changed. How about the God Sword animations? The menu tabs? You may believe that these updates were simply 'minor', but a minor update here and there, and RuneScape could be a totally different game. DO your own due diligence...stop depending on the 'STATE' to protect you.
